Fairfield University Bookstore to fill void left in downtown

“We are delighted to have been given this opportunity to bring a full-scale bookstore and cafe back to the center of the Town of Fairfield,” said Fairfield University President Rev. Jeffrey P. von Arx, S.J. “It is our hope that the store will serve as a meeting place and a destination for residents and guests. We are planning to use the store to house some of our programming – lectures from scholars and author readings and other small cultural events – and it is our anticipation that by opening a Fairfield University Bookstore downtown, we will bring the intellectual and cultural life of our university more fully into the heart of the community.”
